JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — A police union official says the suburban St. Louis officer who fatally shot Michael Brown does not expect to face criminal charges.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

That's what happens when you're innocent.

[DuncanWaring]

George Zimmerman might contest that assertion.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

He probably thought he was OK until Jesse showed up.

[DoughtyOne]

Agreed, but I wish they’d just zip-it for now.

There’s a powder keg in the next room and these folks can’t seem to resist tossing in sparks.

[Ingtar]

They’ll announce it after OZero tonight, or tomorrow. Gotta have that distraction.

[Socon-Econ]

The grand jury surely knows what’s been happening on the outside. The message they are getting is, “Indict this cop or you will be responsible for the hell that breaks loose.”

[mad puppy]

Doesn’t matter what the Grand Jury decides.
There WILL be riots. Too many professional agitators needing to be paid to simply walk away.
If you live in or around Ferguson and want to stay, you better get to the range for some practice and stock up on your ammo.

[DoughtyOne]

I wouldn’t be surprised at all.

Then you wonder. Was it the Brown issue or Obama they’re most pissed off about?

[deport]

If a grand jury decision does come Friday, prosecutors are expected to provide law enforcement
with 48 hours’ notice before making a public announcement, possibly on Sunday.

The current plans could still change and prosecutors could shift the planned grand jury
session, the law enforcement officials said.

Come on, start the show!

[NautiNurse]

Expect the announcement to be made Sunday during church services.

[Veto!]

From the article:

Roorda says Wilson has incurred significant legal, medical and relocation expenses and that a police charity has raised close to $500,000 for him.

[Cementjungle]

Fire all the white cops in Ferguson and hire Obama's new Hispanic "citizens" as cops.. train them, let them have half of Ferguson's section 8 housing.

[morphing libertarian]

Why isn’t the PD paying for that?

[Blue Jays]

I have to research a location to donate money to this officer's legal fund and help.
Thugs are offering money to injure/kill him and even members of his family. It is nuts.

[Veto!]

I would think, but don’t really know, that Wilson’s insurance provided by the state or county or city would pay his med expenses. But perhaps not the rest.

Significant, I think, that he ACTUALLY HAD medical expenses, which flies in the face of a lot of rumors.

[Batman11]

“Expect the announcement to be made Sunday during church services.”

I expect it to be announced tonight, right before Idi Obola speaks.

[morphing libertarian]

all of this is on-the-job and job related.
